Jealous Juno...

Already "parents" to our two dogs, a 5 year old American Eskimo and an 8 year old Beagle, Juno and Solo have been the center of our lives. Until tonight...we recently hired a trainer to assist us with 1. teaching Juno manners, and 2. preparing both Juno and Solo for our future lives with a baby. The trainers advice: "get a baby doll that cries". So, $15 and a noisy trip down the baby doll aisle at Wal-Mart later -- we emerge with this:

It didn't take long for Pete to figure out how to multi-task! We dressed this baby in a onesie that was given to us (we are already accumulating hand me downs!) so that it would smell like something other than plastic. Little one sucks on a bottle and when you take it away, it cries! Juno is alert and slightly interested, but we can already tell he's JEALOUS! Solo -- she hasn't moved from her bed throughout all of this! Surprise, surprise...

Here's to hoping that we don't come home from work one day with a chewed apart baby doll!
